So that the email program can add a 'tag' in the signature of outgoing emails so that the recipients know what music you were listening to when composing the email :) I have not seen this in email clients, but would not be surprised if some did, but have seen this in IM programs - both Pidgin and kopete have options/plugins to show the music you are listening to in your status.
